Scythed:Well, at least Social Security and Medicare will be around for people who don't have children to take care of them.

Because all children take care of their parents, always.. The whole idea of your kids taking care of you when you get old is one of the most retarded, selfish, mis-guided reasons to have children that floats around Fark.

/also, successful folk who don't have kids end up having money for actual quality care(ie, not gov provided) later in life.
